Who's a Good Boy? | With Kristin Andrews, Sarah Brosnan, and Susana Monsó
Do non-human animals have morals? Can chimpanzees tell right from wrong? Do dolphins think about what they ought to do? And can a dog really be good? Recent scientific work can shed light on these issues, but they also take us to the heart of two great philosophical questions: what does it mean to be moral and what (if anything) makes humans unique?

I used to regularly walk a footpath which passed through a farmyard. Whenever I did so the two border collies living there would rush out and bark at my heels until I was clear of the property. On one occasion the younger of the two dogs lightly nipped the back of my leg. The older dog promptly attacked the youngster, seemingly chastising it for having overstepped the boundaries of acceptable behaviour. I continued to be greeted with boisterous barking on subsequent walks but never received another bite.
